INVENTORY CHALLENGE No. 62 - no lines...

Happy friday Friends,
For our 62nd inventory challenge and last one of this year, as we take a break for the Holiday period, Christina, our team mates and I have chosen to explore the No Line coloring technique. I had seen Zoe's coloring projects... but I never received the "call" to explore it! So, this week was my first attempt at stamping an image with pale ink, and being challenged to make the lines disappear... Although I am happy with the results, I did not like the experience at all, first because as you color, you loose all your reference points; it is also difficult to make any accents and create shadows as the lines disappeared... actually, I don't think I will repeat the experience!

I stamped Winter Tilda with Desert Sand Memento ink on X-press blending card, and colored with copics, all the accents were done with prismacolor, too afraid that the colors would blead. I used perfect pearl around my image to create the snow effect. I stamped and embossed little swirls around my image with Vintage Garden Stamps from STempleglede, then, I distressed the borders with Tea Dye, Peeled paint and Tattered rose. I matted my image with Spellbinders scalloped circle shape, sprayed Goosebumps on the green cardstock to make it glittery and glossy, and used AC white glitter cardstock under it.
